    • Quotes

      Elaine: [Elaine undresses] Give it a whirl, Abe.

      George: Well, I like, I want to, I want to...

      Elaine: You want to say something to me?

      George: Yes, I do and I want to be completely honest and get this off your chest. I mine, get this off your breast. I mean, my breast. Get this, off my chest.

      Elaine: Give it a try.

    • Crazy credits
      As the TriStar Pictures logo plays out, Eddie Dash swears at the sight of the horse getting wings, causing it to crash offscreen.
    • Alternate versions
      In a Bounce TV airing, Eddie says the word "wait" instead of the word "fuckin' wings" in the normal TriStar Pictures logo and when the logo ends, he say the word "damn" instead of saying of the word "fuckin". Certain TV airing meanwhile have the cursed words removed and Eddie says "wings" and "white horse" instead.

    Not a patch on 'Silver Streak' or 'Stir Crazy'.
    Another turn out for the Pryor/Wilder duo which does have some funny scenes and amusing dialogue. However, Another You does drag its heels and seems to lose its way halfway through. Just a little too slapstick and not a patch on the fantastic 'Silver Streak' and very funny 'Stir Crazy. I'll give it a 5.
